Sweet, I'm a newbie!
Any room for improvement here? I'm working on being mor aggressive in situations such as this, knowing I have two redraws. What do you guys do with this flop?

That would be my line, as well.
Are you concerned that you shouldn't have raised or that you should have capped? |

Go ahead and cap this flop. You've got two other players in the pot and you'll hit your 7-outer on the turn or 10-outer on the river far often enough to warrant putting in another bet on the flop.

My fear of flushes is a serious leak in my game, so I'm trying to take a more aggressive stance and was curious if it's the right play. Obviously once the turn hit, my fear is gone. |

[/ QUOTE ] I would have raised and just called the 3-bet, but I think you're right. I guess I just needed to see it in print. Alright then, yeah. Cap the flop. |

Re: Flopped set with 3-flush flop
i think its fine. you raise gains you information about his hand now, while its still cheap.

You're worried about how much money you can put into this pot, leading or trailing here be damned. You will fill up here almost half the time you flop a set. And because it's still cheap, that's exactly why you want to jam this flop. Given the opportunity to cap this flop with these cards, you should do it approximately 100 percent of the time in a multi-player field. |

Re: Flopped set with 3-flush flop
ok...so cap for pot equity reasons, i like it! if the turn hadnt paired the board would you cap it? what about if your flop raise got you heads up, would you 3 bet then?
